Norwegian Epic

Escape to The Great Life

Great Stirrup Cay isn't just an island in The Bahamas, it's an escape to The Great Life. And The Great Life isn't just about cruising to your very own private island; it's about unlocking a state of mind. It's a cool drink in your hand at the 2,600 sq. metres pool. The roar of jet skis and a gentle breeze through your cabana. It's shouting at the top of your lungs as you race down the larger-than-life tower of water slides. And it's gazing onto white sand beaches all afternoon. Here, you have the freedom to do what you want, when you want. That's The Great Life, and it's about to get GREATER on the incredible, new Great Stirrup Cay.

Great Life Lagoon

What do ten blue whales, 20 tennis courts, three Washington Monuments, one large cruise ship and Mt. Everest's peak all have in common? They're roughly the same size as our new, 28,000-sq.-ft. pool. Throw in two swim-up bars, beach-style water entry for kids, water features, ocean views, cabanas and you've got yourself a pretty spectacular Caribbean day!

Epic slides. Towering cliff jumps. One unforgettable splash.

Get ready to live the great life at full speed. Spanning the size of several football fields, Great Tides Waterpark is the bold new thrill zone at Great Stirrup Cay - where adventure meets relaxation. Race down sea-inspired slides, drift through a winding river with tunnels that might just be hiding a secret adventure, or leap from dramatic cliffside platforms into crystal-clear waters. Little ones can splash and play in a vibrant water zone, whilst grown-ups unwind with cocktails in a glowing grotto bar. Whether you're chasing high-speed thrills or laid-back vibes, Great Tides delivers next-level excitement for everyone.
